OGEL Island (written as Ogel Island in the second game's manual), also referred to simply as OGEL, is the Brickster's customized island in space. It was featured in all versions of LEGO Island 2, although it was first mentioned in the manual of the first LEGO Island game.
History[]
According to the LEGO Island manual, when the Infomaniac told the Brickster he was going to make a new minifigure friend, the Brickster went insane with jealousy. He stole some bricks from LEGO Island and left to build his own island, which he named OGEL. As revealed in LEGO Island 2, the island is actually in space, unlike LEGO Island, Castle Island, or Adventurers' Island. When the Brickster deconstructed the buildings of LEGO Island, all the bricks supposedly went to OGEL.[source?]
In LEGO Island 2, the Brickster kidnapped Mama and Papa Brickolini and brings them to OGEL Island to serve as his personal chefs. Pepper Roni flew to OGEL Island in a space shuttle. He helped the Brickolinis put OGEL's inhabitants to sleep after feeding them pizza, and then he scaled the Brickster's Palace for a showdown against the Brickster. Once the Brickster was locked up once again, Pepper and the Brickolinis returned home in the Fish Ship.
Structures[]
The Brickster's structures rest on an island-shaped asteroid that floats near the Earth. OGEL Island only had a handful of buildings built from pieces stolen from LEGO Island, although bricks from Adventurers and Knights' Kingdom also appear to be present. It featured a colourful landing pad that ships and shuttles would probably land on if it were occupied. The landing pad has many holes in it; if Pepper falls off OGEL Island, he lands back on the landing pad. On one "peninsula", there was only a strange monolith, around which a troupe of space monkeys danced. On another peninsula sat the Brickster's Fish Ship. On the last peninsula, the Pizzeria sits. On the plateau on top of OGEL Island stands the Brickster's Palace, Brickster's home on OGEL. Energy Crystals can also be found on OGEL Island, acting as the island's collectible item.
Inhabitants[]
The citizens of OGEL Island are mainly mutants. Along with Brickster-Bots, other citizens include a head in a hovercraft vehicle, a mutant centaur astronaut, a scorpion skull flower creature, a floating snake, Slimy Slugs, a 2D floating head with a cape and floating hands, monkeys and bunnies in space suits, and colorful bats. There are numerous Rock Monsters orbiting OGEL Island in the asteroid field.
In the PS1 version of the game, the only inhabitants of OGEL Island besides the Brickster and his Brickster-Bots are mutant minifigures, who chase and knock back players like Slimy Slugs do in the PC version.
Although their scene was cut from the final game, Cedric the Bull and Mr. Hates were planned to appear on OGEL Island as the Brickster's partners.

Notes[]
- The monkeys dancing around a black monolith are a parody of 2001: A Space Odyssey. In addition, the "Make-A-D-Pizza" minigame is set to the tune of The Blue Danube, a waltz featured in 2001.
- OGEL is LEGO spelled backwards, and is commonly used in other LEGO media.
- The face texture of the citizen with the floating head, hands, and cape differs between the main island and Make-A-D Pizza minigame.
